"Lie in the dark brilliantly renders the fragmented society and underworld of Sarajevo at war - the freelancing gangsters, guilty bystanders, the drop-in foreign correspondents, and the bureaucrats frightened for their jobs and very lives.

"Vlado Petric is a homicide investigator in war-battered Sarajevo, and he's in malaise. His wife and daughter have been in Berlin for two years. He has little heat or food. Even the body he encounters in "sniper alley" on his way home from work one night seems little reason for pause, until he realizes that it is the body of Esmir Vitas, chief of the Interior Ministry's special police, and that Vitas has been killed not by any sniper's aim but by a bullet fired at almost point-blank range."
